Upgrading to crossfire?

[Wilko_Dog]

So I just upgraded my gpu to a msi r9270x 4gb as I was on a budget , I use my pc for gaming only. I'm now thinking of getting another in 3 months time to crossfire , just wondering if this would be a good move ? Or should I just keep the 1 card and save for a few years and update my rig as the rest oft components are nearly 4 years old ? My specs are intel i7 930 @ 4ghz 6gb ram (3x2gb) 750w psu

Its only a good move if you need the extra power, this all depends on the games you play and the resolution and in-game settings ect.

I play mainly online games , getting that titanfall next month , I like to have highest graphic settings as possible and my max resolution is 1080 ?

Tbh I would only have got the 4gb version of a lower end card if I was going to crossfire, as it probably doesn't have the powa to utilise all of that 4gb

It was on a week only deal on overclockers for the same price as the 2gb so I thought why not /)

See how you get on.

Ah then I suppose it's worth it

Your CPU is still a decent chip. As suggested see if you need more graphics power and if you do then go ahead and crossfire

Any idea on how much fps would I be looking to gain if I did end up getting crossfire with this card ?
